PAPERADSerial 73087804 · Principal Register
Dead · Expired
Owner: REYNOLDS METALS COMPANY
Class 002 -
Filed May 20, 1976
Registered Dec 28, 1976
The record shows that the mark “PAPERAD” is no longer live; it was registered on December 28, 1976, but the registration expired on October 6, 1997 because it was not renewed. The owner listed is Reynolds Metals Company, a Delaware corporation. The goods covered by the mark were finely divided aluminum trihydrate paper pigment, first used in commerce in August 1962. A new name that is very similar to “PAPERAD” would raise the closest concern in the area of aluminum trihydrate paper pigment, since that is the only goods category shown. The record does not give the mark any control over other uses of the word “paper” or “ad” in unrelated industries. The prosecution history shows a standard registration sequence with no descriptiveness refusal or Supplemental Register movement. No oppositions, cancellations, or enforcement actions appear in the supplied history. For someone looking to use a similar name, the expired status means there is no active protection, but the historical registration still signals that the owner once claimed rights to that specific pigment product.

The way I'd use it, honestly, is as the thing you attach when a bank, a marketplace, or a co-founder asks "are we clear on the name". It answers in one page.
